Prayers for sweet dreams

He is such a sweet boy that it brings tears to my eyes. He has been sitting at the kitchen table for 2 hours. Now he has discovered his own treasure hunt. He has taken everything out of the crayon container and smiled with glee at every item in there that wasn't a crayon. Especially the penny he gets to keep. His attention span is amazing. Baby girl is napping. Camille is outside. Big kids are doing a Starbucks run with Todd. I have the door open, partly to rid the house of poopy diaper smell, but now it's just to hear the peaceful waterfall. Then there is the sound of an airplane and a reminder of what today is. 10th anniversary of Sept 11. Heartfelt sorrow for all the loss and devastation.  Our home is sure happy. Singing "Jesus loves me", toddler tunes, and our made up tunes. Candy land, connect 4. All the favorites. There are moments of frustration, especially if Nate doesn't get a response as quick as he thinks. Moments of tiredness when I get up about 4 times a night at a minimum. Changed 4 dirty & wet diapers and that was just before church. But no fighting to or from church. Only silly giggles over Camille & Madeline teaching Baby Girl(BG) to stick out her tongue.  Thankful for today. Asking for prayers for sweet dreams for Nate. Such a sweet boy, let's pray him thru a great nights sleep.
